Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] spi: spi-cadence: Interleave write of TX and read of RX FIFO

When working in slave mode it seems the timing is exceedingly tight.
The TX FIFO can never empty, because the master is driving the clock so
zeros would be sent for those bytes where the FIFO is empty.

Return to interleaving the writing of the TX FIFO and the reading
of the RX FIFO to try to ensure the data is available when required.

Fixes: a84c11e16dc2 ("spi: spi-cadence: Avoid read of RX FIFO before its ready")
Signed-off-by: Charles Keepax <[email protected]>

Updates since v1:
- Update the kernel doc to match the changes

Thanks,
Charles

[1/2] spi: spi-cadence: Interleave write of TX and read of RX FIFO
commit: 6afe2ae8dc48e643cb9f52e86494b96942440bc6

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Linux driver configured as Slave, due to this above delay we see data corruption issue on Master side.
when Master is continuously reading the data, Slave is failed to prepare the date on time due to above delay.

When Linux driver configured as Slave, we observed data corruption issue with Slave mode read when data length is 400 bytes.
As TX empty doesn't guaranties valid data in RX FIFO, hence we added one byte delay(10us) before RX FIFO read to overcome above issue.
Created patch with above changes, find patch as attachment.
Can you please test and let me know your observations.

Thanks,
Srinivas

Yeah I can test the patch, I am on holiday this week so don't
have access to the hardware, but will do so next week.
